Has anyone else noticed the ever-increasing supply of clothing and accessories that say things on them like "Spoiled", "Brat," and "Princess"? Or sayings like, "Too hot to handle" or "Don't hate me because I'm beautiful...hate me because your boyfriend does." They're in juniors departments everywhere. I just think it's giving young girls the idea that there's nothing wrong with being a spoiled brat, having a sense of entitlement, and having unrealistic expectations.

I DO hate those shirts and the pants with stuff written on the butt. Then again, I just bought a tank top that says "DESIRED" on it.


Before you bust my horns, I'm 35 years old, so I'm allowed.

Hahaha!!! I love the idea of the "kiss this" on the butt! LOL And "Desired" isn't too bad for a saying on a shirt. ;)

When I was in middle school, the song "Do Me Baby" was popular. So, yep, imagine a bunch of 12 and 13-year-olds singing in the halls at school: "you can do me in the mornin', you can do me in the night, you can do me when you wanna...uh...yeah..." Hehehe

OK, I have to admit to my Happy Bunny slippers that say "It's All About Me".

I wear them tongue in cheek.

Sort of.

Maybe it's because Happy Bunny is a smart-azz - just like me. Like attracts like. LOL

Oh God, I just realized I have a "Sleep Around" T-shirt...it was a promotion for a hotel chain, but I liked the T-shirt so I kept it. :) I think it's clever, but I WON'T wear it in public, haha...perhaps to bed.
